What’s going on with my Pothos?

I’m noticing brown discoloration \& crunchiness happening at the outlining of a few leafs. I have great drainage, updated to a bigger pot due to roots needing it, adequate sun light, and watering when needed … can anyone shed some information?

Could possibly be getting TOO much sunlight that it’s burning the leaves. Try placing a little farther away from the window and make sure it’s not by a vent or fan

Make sure your only watering it after the top of the soil is completely dry :) I water mine every two weeks and he's doing great :)
